10 Things that People Who Fall Down a Lot Can Relate to

Humpty Dumpty had a great a fall... this line from the classic children's poem sums ups your entire life. Sitting, standing, climbing stairs - any activity that involves any kind of movement, even if it is just breathing in and out, includes the possibility of you falling down.

Falls that make you laugh, falls that leave you embarrassed, falls that leave you with broken teeth or bones - you've had them all.

So this one's for all those unfortunate folks who've kissed the ground one too many times and gotten back up on their slightly jittery feet. Here's a list of things most frequent fall guys have been through.

1. You are well known in public places because you have had one or more of your embarrassing accidents practically everywhere.
